A Moving Story

The Second Amendment Foundation and founder Alan Gottlieb have moved their civil rights lawsuit against Washington Attorney General Bob Ferguson from federal court to Washington State court in a move the plaintiffs hope will bring a speedier resolution to their case. [More]

That a lawsuit is even needed is all the evidence of in-your-face tyranny I need.

Never Forget What?

Never Forget. [More]

Last year’s was even more Lee Greenwood Rah-Rah, with “The Light of Liberty Still Shines Bright…”

As I said yesterday, “Happy Building 7 Day.”

We can’t remember what’s being deliberately withheld from us by those who used 9/11 as their pretext for turning the Republic into a growing totalitarian surveillance state. 

And never forget every casualty on that day ties back to those same people not doing their jobs.

How US Gun Laws Affect the Rest of America [Watch]

I just don’t have an extra 42 minutes in the course of a given day to watch a video so I’m posting this link without seeing this yet.

That it’s by Vice and one of the major premises appears to be U.S. guns are the prime source for Mexico’s problems makes me wonder if it will be worth my time later.

And that said, once in a while they don’t do too badly.

If any of you want to brave it, feel free to comment.

Meanwhile, Over at ‘The Religion of Peace’…

Taliban’s morality czar claims women don’t need ‘sightseeing’ as he demands women cover up head even more [More]

Funny, not a word about this from NOW, the Women’s March, Rashida Tlaib, Ilhan Omar, or any of the DEI crowd… I guess they’re all too busy seething over how oppressive the white male Western Christian patriarchy is.

I wonder what ol’ Khaled would do to these mouthy broads… right after he had Tim and the dorky goofball behind him thrown from the roof…?

We’re the Only Ones Stepping Up Enough

The two-step is a tactic where a state trooper will pull an individual over for a traffic infraction and, after issuing a ticket, take steps back toward their vehicle. They will then turn around and initiate a new interaction with a driver, which the highway patrol classifies as a voluntary stop. [More]

If they’re not free to leave without getting double-tapped, it’s hardly voluntary.

Forbidden Thoughts

33% of Generation Z believes using the wrong gender pronoun should be illegal. Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer supports similar legislation that comes with potential jail sentences. [More]

What kind of anti-government extremist would support seditious conspiracies to defy that?

Or to oppose these pieces of totalitarian sh!+…?

Plain and Simple, This is Naked, In-Your-Face Tyranny Designed to Terrorize Liberty Advocates

January 6 political prisoner Ryan Samsel has been held in prison without trial now since January 2021. [More]

Compare to:

In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial…

Opposing a tyrannical regime that would do this is very different from being “anti-government.”

That so many social media “progressives” laugh at this and call these political prisoners “traitors” shows that with some, reconciliation is not only impossible, but who would want it?

Tangentially-Related UPDATE

33 years = cruel and unusual punishment AND state-perpetrated domestic terrorism.

And AP = DSM.

Eviscerating the Blessings of Liberty, One Victim at a Time

She successfully navigated the administrative process at the DEA, but when prosecutors filed a forfeiture action in federal court she missed the deadline to file one required piece of paper. That was enough for the government to take her money forever. [More]

Just like the Founders intended!

Unanimous consent, eh? In this case, getting Black Lives Matter to start an “Anne Milgram is a racist” meme would get them to back down in no time.

I still want to get me one of those Leatherman tools

Why Would People Who Ignore the Second Amendment Pay Attention to the Sixth?

California Supreme Court: No Right to In-Person Cross-Examination of Accuser During Campus Sexual Assault Proceedings [More]

Well, yeah, we’re supposed to #BelieveWomen.

Noting some “women” are more equal than others.

Shock and Awe Lawfare

The recommendation for Rhodes is the longest thus far for any person charged in connection with the Capitol attack, reflecting what prosecutors see as his role in a key organizing figure for members of the far-right militia — even as Rhodes was never alleged to have entered the Capitol building itself on Jan. 6. [More]

So he not only never went in, they have no direct orders he issued to any specific person. The seditious conspiracy here is by the persecutors.

This is an act of judicial terrorism with a chilling, wider goal in mind. What else would you call “the deliberate creation of a sense of fear, usually by the use or threat of use of symbolic acts of physical violence, to influence the political behavior of a given target group”?

I guess the jurors were impressionable and manipulable enough to embrace the hysteria. It also raises a question I’ve had for some time for those whose liberty advocacy efforts center on Fully Informed Juries: Even though “text, history, and tradition” known to the Founders is on your side, your message is limited by those who control the media, and by prevailing legal establishment interests, to the echo chambers of the political fringes.

The arrogant f*** (from Portland, OR) who wrote that actually cites a law review article that compares telling free citizens about their nullification rights to telling children not to stick beans up their noses (“most of them would not have thought about it had it not been suggested”) and wrings his hands over how difficult the First Amendment makes full suppression.

And potentially sympathetic politicians, mindful of what the Swamp and the media would do to them, have little incentive to touch it.

So why not force wider discussion and open the eyes of more by creating ballot measures in states that allow it? Just the act of collecting signatures will raise awareness “outside the choir” (and I qualify the use of that term), and the fact that something is gaining steam, and maybe even getting on the ballot, will call attention to a freedom safeguard the would-be rulers desperately want to keep citizens from learning about.

We might stick beans up our noses.
